Politics, Religion and Her

Written by Tony Martin & Byron Hill
Performed by Sammy Kershaw

From the CD of the same name, this song would have been an ideal theme song for Commander Benjamin Sisko back in the first season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.  I'm convinced there's a story in here somwhere, but I just haven't had the time to dig it out.

Hey ole buddy, how you been
Not much has changed here on my end
No I don't think she's comin' back
We better not get into that

Chorus
Let's talk about baseball / Talk a little small talk
There's gotta be a good joke that you've heard
Let's talk about NASCARs / Old Hollywood movie stars
Let's talk about anything
Anything in this world
But politics, religion and her

Politics can start a fight
Religion's hard to know who's right
And one more topic I won't touch
That one's her -- it hurts too much

Chorus

Let's talk about NASCARs / Old Hollywood movie stars
Let's talk about anything / Anything in this world
But politics, religion and her
But politics, religion and her
